391 attrition
Downey was following the two young men on a wild run, and when he was still on the road, in front of the army of weirdos, the Lone Star City, which had been holding out for a short time, was breached.
After they had eaten their fill, these monsters controlled by the scorched earth giant Huls stopped killing the inhabitants of Lone Star City, but consciously surrounded them and drove them out of the city.
What is certain is that there is absolutely no good end for those who are driven away by these weirdness.
Donnie heard a loud noise behind him, and stopped to look up to see the strange flying patches in the sky, they covered the sky like a dark cloud, and their hideous appearance was clearly recognizable.
Todd, the young man who had taken away the dead fish in the crystal tank, turned red at the sight of this scene, and was roaring madly at the sky.
"Be sensible! We have more important things to do! Desney clutched Todd's sleeve tightly and, with Donnie's help, dragged Todd away.
Hulse's freaks seem to have confidence in themselves, as they don't choose a more secure approach to trapping the entire Lone Star City, but instead attack along one side in a haphazard manner. This leaves Donnie with a life path full of crises.
But no matter how difficult it is to survive, it is indeed possible for Donnie to escape.
On the other hand, Donnie also dismissed the idea of sneaking up on Todd and Desney for the simple reasons that both of them are not simple, they are all able to release the magic of the Whale of Light, and their physical fitness is not inferior to the transcendent that focuses on melee combat; On the other hand, because the temple lanterns are all the things of the Whale of Light, it is best to stand on the side of the Whale of Light in the spirit illusion.
With this in mind, Donnie naturally wanted to side with Todd.
Besides, although Todd's relationship with Lone Star City is a bit strange, they are obviously still on the side of humans.
It didn't take long for Todd to sober up and realize that he had done something wrong.
"You're right, Lord Dotjie is still waiting for us, and we can't let him down!" As he spoke, Todd suddenly appeared in his hand with a long sword made of brilliant light.
Downey had seen the priest of the Lord of Radiance use divine magic, not much different from what Todd was using now, but it was fundamentally different.
The Whale of Light's divine skills seem to be more advanced, and the light that makes up the divine arts is more comprehensive, with a variety of qualities, and seems to be more powerful than the Lord of Light.
This is not impossible, after all, it has been recorded in some books that deal with the pre-Dark Ages that the Lord of Light was once only a very inconspicuous of the gods of the Light family, and even that He was originally only a god of twilight.
In this era, the strength of the Whale of Light is obviously stronger.
However, as soon as Donnie thought about this, he immediately noticed that Todd's life aura was dissipating from his body.
"It's!" Donnie's pupils contracted, and he set his gaze on the brilliant sword of light as if he hadn't noticed anything.
This long sword is obviously abnormal, it is not cast through a divine spell given by the gods, it is more like the kind of trick that hurts the enemy by one thousand and self-inflicts eight hundred.
"Could it be that the Whale of Light has fallen?" Donnie had some doubts in his heart, if this god had already fallen at this time, then how did this spirit illusion appear?
Downey thought about it and couldn't figure out the answer, which was normal, after all, not all answers could be guessed.
Todd held the Sword of Light in his hand, and when he wielded it, it was able to release a golden sword light, which quickly split the manticore-tailed hargriff that fell from the sky in two.
As the fastest of Hulse's monstrous armies, the manticores of the Hippriff and the Harpy had flown above Donnie's heads.
"I didn't expect them to come so fast!" Todd frowned, the battle had consumed some of his life.
Todd, who had been a young man before, had turned white on his temples after wielding a few swords and killing a few manticore-tailed griffriffs.
"Desni, get out of here with Naunes and go find Lord Dotjie!" Todd was the first to use this deadly magic spell, and unless he took the initiative to withdraw it, this magic would only stop if it devoured his life.
Desney's mouth opened several times, but finally he didn't say anything, and pulled Donnie straight into a narrow alleyway.
In the next second, enraged manticores and harpies descended from the sky, rushing towards Todd with a rotten smell, but the latter was not afraid at all, wielding the sword of light to stay in place, pulling the monsters who rushed to the front.
Judging from Todd's strength, it is mostly a second-order transcendent, and his strength is close to the apex of the second sequence, but it is still difficult for his strength to deal with these weirdness.
In particular, Todd's supernatural powers cost his life before he could use them, so it wouldn't be long before he would even consume himself to death.
Desney knew he was powerless to rescue Todd, so he resolutely ran forward.
Donnie followed him, and he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.
Todd was the one who took the little fish, Desney obviously didn't take anything, if Todd died here, then why did they go to pick up something for themselves?
Although he had some doubts in his heart, Downey preferred that Todd give something to Desney at a moment that he didn't notice.
On the other hand, Donnie also knew that if it weren't for himself, a man with no extraordinary powers, to follow the two of them, Todd shouldn't have died so soon.
Based on the experience of the last time, Todd could hold out for at least another ten minutes or so. Ten minutes later, it was the time when Donnie had been blocked by Todd and the others.
This time the two sides were not enemies, and it was not far from their destination, so Downey followed Desney to a gray brick building that looked very dilapidated.
Soon after Donnie and Desney left, Todd died at the hands of a strange man with the ability to fly, and the Sword of Light did not completely dissipate until the moment he died.
Despite the urgency of the matter, and the fact that the place would soon be scorched, Desney continued to pound on the wooden door with a certain rhythm.
The door soon opened, and along the grim white brick wall stood six men of Todd's age.
None of these people were wearing armor, and they looked no different from the vast majority of the inhabitants of Lone Star City. But in reality, each of them is extraordinary.
Donnie was killed by these people before, but he didn't expect to act with them this time.
Among them, an old man in a gray linen robe was looking at Donnie calmly.
